DEAR DEIDRE: AFTER losing my dream job, I\u2019ve had to move back in with my parents.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I feel like a failure and I miss having my own home in a city I loved.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I\u2019m a 22-year-old man. My ambition was to become a paramedic and I was so excited to start work.<\/p>\n
But it soon became obvious I couldn\u2019t hack the pressure of the job. <\/p>\n
Self-esteem has always been an issue for me, and I simply didn\u2019t have enough confidence to make fast, important decisions.<\/p>\n
I ended up quitting before I was sacked.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I was devastated. Without a steady job, I couldn\u2019t afford to stay in Leeds, the city I had settled in. I had to move back home to Surrey.<\/p>\n
My family are supportive and understanding, and welcomed me back. But I am miserable. \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
How can I pick myself up and start again?<\/p>\n

DEIDRE SAYS:\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>Returning home after living independently is never easy. Try to see it as being a temporary arrangement rather than a step backwards.<\/p>\n Your self-esteem has taken another battering. But it is possible to build on this by taking small steps initially. My support pack Raising Self-esteem should help.\u00a0<\/p>\n The charity Mind (mind.org.uk) also has useful information on low self-esteem.<\/p>\n Realising your dream job wasn\u2019t suitable must have been a blow. But you clearly have lots of useful skills.<\/p>\n While you think about what to do, consider volunteering somewhere.\u00a0<\/p>\n See moving back to Leeds and being independent again as a goal for the future.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\nMORE FROM DEAR DEIDRE<\/h2>\n
